Picture
Maybe a picture of actual blubber would be more appropriate? Cazort 22:47, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Blubber in fish?
Is blubber seen in fish?

I ate lots of Seawolf (fish) recently. Those were filets slices cut from that "Stonebiter", with the skin around the slice. Under the skin is on closer inspection a 1-2 mm thick layer of what from appearance and function (thermal insulation) should be fat.

HOWEVER, said fat did not melt on frying, it got rather slimy and glibbery and is really not amusing to eat. Could this be blubber? If not, what is it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.73.213.30 (talk) 14:13, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Should we mention that 'spic' refers to some/all types of whale? blubber ? - Rod57 (talk) 03:50, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Vitamin C
The article mentions blubber as an important source of Vitamin D for Arctic native people, but does not mention Vitamin C. Wasn't blubber the source of both? 2601:441:4900:A6E0:6CEF:A62F:D2DB:454 (talk) 13:34, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
